State Hackers Pushed Onchain Malware Up 420%. Tron Is Doing the Heavy Lifting

Chainalysis has tracked a 420% jump in onchain malware activity, with North Korea-linked crews hosting infrastructure on Tron, Aptos and BNB Chain while suspected Iran-linked actors hide instructions inside Bitcoin transactions. The mechanics are simpler, and more boring, than most people realize. And the cost lands on legitimate users first.

Hacker Turned 55 Days of Failed Transactions Into a $3 Million Master Key

GalaChain's August exploit wasn't a hack in the traditional sense. An attacker spent 55 days harvesting signatures from failed transactions, then used them as a reusable master key to drain roughly $3 million in GALA and dozens of other tokens. Multiple audits missed it.

MEXC's AI Upgrade: Closing the Gap Between a Trading Idea and a Filled Order

MEXC rolled out a major AI upgrade on September 17, 2026, blending discovery, analysis, strategy generation and user-confirmed execution into one loop. The 0-fee exchange is betting that friction, not fees, is the next battleground. Here's what actually shipped and why it matters.

The Fed Grew Its Balance Sheet by $134B This Year. That Still Isn't QE.

The Fed Grew Its Balance Sheet by $134B This Year. That Still Isn't QE.

The Fed hiked rates a quarter point on Sept. 16 and kept its reserve-management authority intact, which set off a fresh round of QE talk in crypto. The problem is that reserve management and quantitative easing do completely different jobs, and the operations schedule shows net reserve purchases sitting at zero.

Bitget Widens Proof of Reserves to 19 Assets. Does Broader Coverage Mean Safer?

Bitget expanded its Proof of Reserves from four cryptocurrencies to 19 major assets, extending both platform-level disclosures and personal Proof of Assets verification. It's real progress on transparency, though a snapshot is still just a snapshot.

Bitcoin Holds $76,000 After Fed Hikes to 3.75%, but Four Demand Gauges Are Fading

Bitcoin Holds $76,000 After Fed Hikes to 3.75%, but Four Demand Gauges Are Fading

The Fed's unanimous hike was already priced in. Kevin Warsh's refusal to call conditions restrictive wasn't, and it reset the ceiling on rate expectations. Bitcoin absorbed the hit and stayed above $76,000, but ETF outflows, flat stablecoin supply, a stalled Realized Cap and slowing corporate buying all point the same direction.

Stock-Linked Memecoins Trade NVDA Vibes, Not NVDA. HTX Research Just Ran the Numbers

Stock-Linked Memecoins Trade NVDA Vibes, Not NVDA. HTX Research Just Ran the Numbers

HTX Research dropped a new report on memecoins paired directly with stock tokens like NVDA, TSLA, and MU. The 100,000% APY headlines are noise. The fee-coverage multiple is the signal. Here's what actually decides whether this survives.

The 100,000% APY Is a Mirage: Inside Robinhood Chain's $1.7 Billion Stock-Memecoin Trade

The 100,000% APY Is a Mirage: Inside Robinhood Chain's $1.7 Billion Stock-Memecoin Trade

HTX Research published a systematic breakdown of stock-linked memecoins on Robinhood Chain on September 17, and the most useful thing in it's a demolition of the 100,000% APY being advertised to liquidity providers. The market structure is real. The yield is arithmetic theater.

Circle Built Arc for Banks. Meme Coins Took 82% of Day One Volume.

Circle's Arc network cleared $410.8 million in DEX volume on its first day of public mainnet. Roughly 82% of it came from meme coin launchpads, not the institutions Circle spent years courting. The market's verdict: degens still run the front door of every new chain.

Chainflip Zeroes TRON USDT Balances After $736K Exploit

Chainflip will reset affected liquidity providers' active TRON USDT balances to zero under its restart plan, following a 736,442.17 USDT exploit disclosed on Sept. 12. Providers keep an on-chain record of what they're owed, but repayment timing is still unannounced.

OpenAI Admitted Its Models Broke the Rules 6 Times. That's the Real Story

OpenAI disclosed six cases of "unexpected or concerning model behavior" from the past six months, bundled with a framework committing the company to keep reporting them. The incidents matter less than the precedent, but a self-written report card isn't an audit.
